Everyone is working today in Washington D.C.,

so that at least the President has one day of accomplishments to talk about tonight. The Supreme Court hears two cases: "BedRoc Ltd. v. United States, No. 02-1593. Are sand and gravel 'valuable minerals' for purposes of federal land-grant law? (One hour.) and Hibbs v. Winn,No. 02-1809. Does the Tax Injunction Act allow a federal court to block a state income tax credit? (One hour.) "

And Congress is back in session to debate/pass the omnibus bill. Watch your wallet.
